Garth's Boasts Addition of Seltzer
as Auctioneer and Director of Marketing

Kellie M. Seltzer


Garth’s Auctions, of Delaware, Ohio, has recently expanded their team of talent by hiring Kellie Seltzer, of Atglen, Pennsylvania as Auctioneer and Director of Marketing.  Graduating from Wellesley College in 1992 with a double major in Political Science and French Studies, Seltzer is best known for her 13 year tenure with Downingtown, Pennsylvania auction firm, Pook & Pook, where she attained the positions of Vice President and Auctioneer.  With additional education in Individual Arts Management from West Chester University of Pennsylvania and certification in graphic design and project management, Seltzer is well-positioned to manage the production of Garth’s catalogs, flyers, ads, and related marketing materials.  Reknowned for her command of the auction block, Seltzer joins a team of four accomplished auctioneers, including Vice President, Amelia Jeffers - making the Garth's team one of the few national houses with a strong, young team of female auctioneers in its arsenal. 

“Kellie has been with us since February of this year,” explains Jeff Jeffers, President of Garth’s.  “The past few months have been terrific.  Kellie’s drive and professionalism are impressive – and, her quick wit and fun personality make her a perfect fit for the Garth’s team.  We couldn’t be happier to have her on our team.” For Seltzer, a return to the national auction scene seemed inevitable after taking a brief hiatus in 2008.  “I love the {auction} business.  My start with Pook after college was serendipitous – but, it led me to a true passion.  The opportunity to work with great objects and meet interesting people in the fast-paced auction world is very rewarding to me. I am grateful to learn about something new every day.”

“Kellie is the kind of addition to our team that allows us to really look broadly at opportunities to grow Garth’s.  Having her feet on the ground in Eastern PA will be a huge benefit to us and our clients on the eastern seaboard,” continues Jeffers.  “She joins a group of people who are looking not at 6 or 12 months from now – but 3, 5 and 10 years down the road.  It is an exciting time to be here – and, surrounded by the talented and professional people we have been able to bring on board.”
